Description
Clinging to rocks or blades of kelp, the northern clingfish uses its fins to form suction cups that allow it to withstand the crashing waves and surging tides. The suction formed by its fins holds a small amount of water, which provides the northern clingfish with just enough moisture to breathe as it waits for the tide to roll back in.
